In the realm of rimfire rifles, precision and reliability are paramount. The latest offering from Winchester sets a new standard for both hunting small game and recreational shooting. This rifle is chambered in .22 WMR, a caliber renowned for its versatility and effectiveness on small targets.
The heart of this firearm is its smooth lever action, complemented by an oversized lever loop that facilitates rapid cycling, even under pressure. Constructed with an aluminum receiver finished in durable Cerakote black, it promises longevity without sacrificing weight - tipping the scales at just 6.1 pounds (2.77 kg).
A medium profile carbon steel barrel measuring 18 inches (45.72 cm) ensures optimal balance between accuracy and maneuverability while maintaining a harmonious aesthetic with its satin finish. The barrel's 1:16 twist rate stabilizes projectiles perfectly for consistent performance shot after shot.
The stock is crafted from exquisite Turkish walnut featuring a beautiful satin finish that not only adds elegance but also provides durability in field conditions. It includes stippling on the pistol grip area to ensure firm handling during operation—a crucial feature when precise control matters most.
Adjustable iron sights sit atop this masterpiece ready for zeroing-in on your target; however, should you desire optics tailored to your specific needs, the drilled and tapped receiver offers seamless scope installation possibilities.
Safety remains uncompromised thanks to an integrated crossbolt safety mechanism—simple yet effective engineering ensuring peace of mind whether you're teaching novices or honing skills yourself.
